META: Not sure why this was flagged/dead? I just vouched for it. Is it because it's political and not strictly about tech/hacker news?

I'd argue that current events have a direct impact on all of us and this absolutely warrants discussion. Furthermore, I'm not sure I know of any instance where a President has disseminated writing like this. It's an interesting change, since it means that former Presidents can continue exerting influence.

Jimmy Carter has done a lot since leaving office, as a diplomat and as an author. I think Bush I remained fairly politically active after leaving office, as well. Wikipedia has several articles about "post-presidency of [ex-prez]" but it's a very incomplete list.
